Hello!
How can I install the Kernel Sources in Debian 3.0 ?
I have absolutely no idea.

I have a driver which gives the following compile error:
"linux/modversions.h: No such file or directory"

Thanks for any help.

Patrik

Go to www.kernel.org, download the kernel sources. Then tar -jxvf 
linux-2.4.20.tar.bz2

If it's anything like apt-get for redhat

apt-get install kernel-source

then redo it with the one for your kernel specifically...

Apparently, you don't want to recompile your kernel, so you won't have
to download the entire source. Just the headers will be enough.

apt-get install kernel-headers-`uname -r`

should do the trick. If it doesn't, replace `uname -r` with your
currently running kernel version.

Hehehehe, it's the other way around. apt-get for redhat is like apt-get
for debian ;-)
